Yeah, right.  Wanna buy a bridge in Brooklyn?

The faked mail header on that message is:

Received: from wittsend.com ([68.11.155.105]) by lakemtao02.cox.net
	(InterMail vM.5.01.06.05 201-253-122-130-105-20030824) with ESMTP
	id <20040207005648.ZZWA19763.lakemtao02.cox.net at wittsend.com>
	for <ale at ale.org>; Fri, 6 Feb 2004 19:56:48 -0500

Note that Mike's system, wittsend.com, is not at IP 68.11.155.105 so
the message is faked.
